His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 108

What?" Liam asked his brother who was staring at him in astonishment.

" I am just thinking how could you accept such an offer? I mean do you even know how to date someone. You talk to people as if you are doing them a favour. Do you have any idea how to woo a girl, any girl, let alone Aurora King?"

Liam sighed. "The girl is an emotional fool. She thinks with her heart not mind. But the main problem is the Restaurant owner…" Liam started and the tightness on his face and darkness in his eyes made Ralph's mind go haywire.

"Don't Liam, please. Ethan said he would handle that man and he would. I don't think we should interfere in his territory more than we already did, at least not till you get married," Ralph suggested.

Liam nodded. "Even after marrying Aurora, I won't break my words because my words hold value. But now, my main concern is about how to woo that unbearable shop of chattering."

Ralph raised a brow with a smirk on his face. "Best of luck with that because I know it won't be easy for you. From whatever you told me, I gather the girl is the opposite of your personality. You don't like it when someone speaks a single sentence more than needed and here you want to marry a girl who couldn't keep her mouth shut!"

Liam leaned back in the car seat and closed his eyes. Liam Knight for the first time in his life had no idea how to handle the situation he was stuck into.

There has to be a way…

He was thinking and then a thought clicked in his mind. He had the opportunity in his hand. He smirked while pulling out his phone from his coat pocket and dialled his friend Alexandrios number.

"What?" He snapped and Liam's brows jerked together.

"Is there an issue?" Liam asked him in all seriousness because he knew Alexandrios in and out and that's not how he greeted him.

Alexandrio on the other hand pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration and sighed. "Yes, nothing serious. Tell me what you want now?"

Liam knew there was something Alexandrio was not sharing. But right now was not the time to persuade him to know. He has other important matters to think about.

"I want Aurora to win this contest. I will be back in Vancouver till evening but when I reach there I want this contest to be over and Aurora is declared as the winner with a two months contract with, The Belle."

Alexandrio's brows jerked upward when he heard his next words. "She will work in The Belle's head office with Rawls."

"Head office! Your office, Liam? Do I need to know something?"

Liam chuckled. "Do as I say, pal," saying that he ended the call and once again leaned back in his car seat but this time with an excited smirk on his lips.

Mrs Knight, it will be so much fun to play with you.

At the same time, Alexandrio called Katie in his cabin and asked her to do as Liam told her with a little change in the words.

"Make sure the contract states exactly what I said." He ordered Katie who nodded curtly in understanding and left.

Alexandrio smiled. "I won't let you leave me that easily miss Emily. If you choose me willingly, good or I can be a very persuasive man." He whispered to himself and lifted his wineglass toward his lips and gulped it one go.

On the other hand, Aurora was explaining her design to her friends.

"Hm! It's nice, I think after this no one can stop us from winning." Susan told both her friends while studying the design with her eyes.

"Yes, it's beautiful, Aurora," Emily supported Susan's words.

Aurora smiled. It felt a lifetime away from when she came to Vancouver from Churchill when it's only been a month. Yes, everything changed in this last month. Their smiles turned into forced smiles. The only person who was behaving like herself was Susan and both Aurora and Emily prayed that it would remain that way, Forever. At least one of them should remain the same while the other two among the three friends have lost their enthusiasm too soon.

Emily drew in a sharp breath before speaking. "It's final then. We will give our best and the rest is fate."

They were discussing their presentation when a knock sounded on the door of their cabin.

Aurora opened the door. It was Mr Joshua who was on the other side. "There is a meeting with our legal advisor. Your presence is needed in the meeting room."

Aurora smiled. "Give us a moment to gather our purse, please."

Aurora closed the room and told her friends about the meeting. They gathered their belongings and followed Joshua in the meeting room.

Alexandrio was sitting on the centre chair with two stone-faced lawyers. The other contestant and his team were also present there and Miss Katie was sitting beside Alexandrio with an open folder

Emily's eyes went to Alexandrio who was talking to one of the lawyers. Emily looked away, scolding hers to maintain her composure.

The meeting started and the Lawyer informed them about their two monthly contracts. "You all agreed to sign it before the final round, the terms are the same, it's just a procedure needed to be done."

"I am ready to sign with my whole team." The other contestant, Maya said after reading it.

Aurora glanced at Susan who had her nose stuck in the contract and was reading it thoroughly. Aurora tried to understand but the language in that contract was a little hard for her to understand.

"I want to call my dad's lawyer…" Aurora started but Susan interrupted. "No need, I read it and I accept everything written in it."

"But…"
